Description David Chmelik 2021-11-14 01:07:07 UTC
SUMMARY
KDE seems to often/usually use languages from the end of the regional settings list. I had in order British English, American English, Greek.  I was usually getting popup/error/etc. messages in Greek.  I removed it (just kept the alternative  keyboard layout) but it's still happening.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add languages in regional settings.
2. Do something to get a message.
3. See that it uses last, not first language on the list.

OBSERVED RESULT
Uses last language on your list for messages.  Konsole errors, also various non-KDE program tool-tips, and others did this.

EXPECTED RESULT
Use first language on your list for messages.
